Hi there,
first, in object navigator, under system parameters, in DESFORMAT you have to put a DELIMITEDDATA for the output type of the file,
next, in the data model you have to create a query like:
SELECT 'Title 1' ||
chr(13) ||
'Title 2' ||
chr(13) ||
'Date: ' || to_char(sysdate,'YYYY-MM-DD') ||
chr(13) ||
'Hour: ' || to_char(sysdate,'HH24:MI:SS') || CHR(13) ||
:PARAMETER1 ||
CHR(13) Q0_HEADER_XLS
FROM DUAL;
And in the proprety panel for Q0_HEADER_XLS you to put NO, or discard from XML output.
may help.

Need Help in report

Hi All,
There is a current funcationality for exporting the value of one entity being selected from a drop down and exporting to excel. This has limited number of records, so excel is able to handle this.
But now the need is to select an option that says "select all entitites", When I try to export this to excel, it just hangs and does nothing. The total number of records is definitely more than 65000 which is the maximum that excel spreadsheet can handle.
Can you please give some options or suggestions on how I can achieve to export this huge number of records to any other format other than excel.
Will exporting to PDF work?
Please reply asap.
Thanks

thanks a lot for your reply.
Cheers. Although I suspect there was an element of sarcasm in yours.
My advice was sound: if you need help urgently, and you're not getting it here, then it might be an idea to pursue other channels. And also an urgent issue might need a bit of urgency on your part as well as ours, eh? An easy way to get something solved urgently is to throw money at it.
Anyway...
What's the purpose of this export? Your post is a bit light on detail, so it's difficult to give a sensible answer.
Can you not export the recordset to more than on Excel file?
You could spool it out to a CSV file or something, maybe... CSVs don't have a size limit, obviously.
Or maybe some sort of XML?
It's difficult to be sure, but I really don't see a PDF as a sensible format for exported data..?

Need help w/ JSP formating a page.

Ok. I need to make the following code work. I think it needs help w/ formating is all. Below is the JSP page I would like it in as well as where I think the code should go. Not shure how to get it to display the output though.
var fullSessionName;
Function startHODSession(sessionName) {
var i = document.HODApplet.startSession(sessionName);
if (i == 0) {
fullSessionName = sessionName + document.HODApplet.getSessionID();
I need to run that part of code and display the output on a webpage. Any help would be awosme as I am lost w/ JSP more of a vb kind of guy. but learning quickly. Thanks for any help or advice.
Thanks

Great catch on the aplet and maybe that is where I am going wrong. So let me back up a little and maybe you can get me out of my bind.
Basically what I want for a test app is: a little text box w/ a button. type in an number and click the button.
the button will then send the info to a terminal emulator. (ibm host on demand)
So that is what the 3 include statements where for. I got that from the API example.
so what I really need the page to do is print the list of connections.
so I need to get the latest session ID:
var fullSessionName;
Function startHODSession(sessionName) {
var i = document.HODApplet.startSession(sessionName);
if (i == 0) {
fullSessionName = sessionName + document.HODApplet.getSessionID();
Then run:
public int sendKeys1 (String text)
The string being what was put in the box.
for right now i do not need error checking and i know the screen will be on the right spot to accpet the input.
so if there is a better way to make it work using an applet....Im all for it.
any ideas would be great.
thanks

NEED HELP...FORMATING SIZE PROBLEM

I've been succesfully building and formating projects that only lasted 30 minutes.
I'm having some problems with my latest project (1 hour and 20 minutes)...
I did compress with "90 minutes best quality".
and when I import in dvdsp, the file size is 6 GB.
Now it won't format into a blank dvd-R.
I am kinda new at this and need to put it on a dvd for a client.
Could somebody tell me what should I do ?
Should I compress again or can I still burn it with another form of blank dvd?
I need help...
Thank you.

Make sure to select A.Pack/Dolby (make sure that file is made) and use that in the project, not the .aif file

Need help for reporting

hi,
Hope I did not post to the wrong place. but I really need help here. I've been using Crystal Report all these while before I tried out java. However, there is a problem here.
I've been doing some complex reports that comes with subreports and grabing values from the program. but there is no one program that i found can really support the reporting in java. I've even tried the crystal clear and Jbuilder enterprise trial version (which comes with crystal report). but I still can't get the output that I want.
So, I'm here to ask :
1. what sort of reporting system r u using that is recommended?
2. And if I were to continue supporting crystal report where can I get a better component that supports crystal report ?
3. And where can I get tutorials for java integration with crystal reports?
thanks.

Also check out i-text. It's an open source Java -> PDF tool. You will need to write a mapper to go from JDBC ResultSet to your own custom Java class. Otherwise, it is almost like writing HTML programatically.

I need help with reporting as soon as possible!

How can I do reporting in JDeveloper like in Crystal reports. Is there any extention or tool that can be of help.
Thanks

@Fenoch,
I'm also new to the JDeveloper world and I haven't gotten into reporting yet, but a couple I've heard about are
Oracle BI Publisher - http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/xml-publisher/index.html
Jasper Reports - http://www.jaspersoft.com/
BIRT - http://www.eclipse.org/birt/phoenix/ (more of an eclipse thing I think)
I hope that helps, I'd like to hear what you find out about any of these.
Don't let elitist responses run you out of the community.
@John,

JDeveloper doesn't have reporting capability, per se, but there are a number of Java-based reporting tools out there, which you could find [url http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=java+reports]here
John
Way to be an ass to a newbie. It is posts like this (from an Oracle "Ace" Director no less) that push people away from the platform.
Maybe you could post a link to a reporting tool you know about, instead of sounding off like an elitists jerk and belittling a new guy. I'm sure you popped into the world full of knowledge and ego, never received any help or asked any "newb" questions.
I also find it very interesting that your "helpful" search link sends us to GOOGLE and not on a search of these forums. Could it be that the forum search is unreliable and returns garbage results most of the time?
You could have linked a forum search -
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/search.jspa?objID=f83&q=java+reports (Typical unhelpful results set)
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/search.jspa?objID=f83&q=reports (Slightly better, at least has a couple posts talking about Jasper)
Re: Report Facility
Or if you just gotta use google at least narrow it to the forum you are suggesting we search in -
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&as_q=java+reports&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&num=100&lr=&as_filetype=&ft=i&as_sitesearch=http%3A%2F%2Fforums.oracle.com%2Fforums%2Fforum.jspa%3FforumID%3D83&as_qdr=all&as_rights=&as_occt=any&cr=&as_nlo=&as_nhi=&safe=images
It is actually the low quality of the forum search tool that forces people to re-post the same questions as others have. I know I do it all the time after I've attempted multiple searches.
TL;DR version
Be helpful or be silent.
Bullying the new people pushes them away and hurts the community. No new people -> no more JDeveloper.

I need help in Report for production orders for my customer.

Hi All
I have scenario where plant A needs the following report for Material XXX which has setting as Stock Trnasfer order from Plant B.
Need report withthe following details, Storage Unit number, Material No, Quantity, Planned Order Date in plant A, Date Produced in plant B, Date Received by Plant A.
Please tell me if there is any standard report to take the following details. Scenario is that the header material YYY in Plant A has one material XXX as BOM component. Now this material has setting as Stock transfer from Plant B. On creating a plan order for Header material it will create a Plan order in plant B for component XXX. The above said detail is required for component XXX in plant A.

Dear
Did you explore the report in CO46-Order Progress Report based on Sales Order /Material /Production Order
Or COOIS/COHV for your requirement.Here you can get the Planned Order Details and also Production Order Details .

Help on report formatting

Hi all,
Ok dumb question but I am going to ask anyway.....
I have a report that I want to break on emp supv so that each supv gets a separate page of their emps....
is there a way to make my report break to a new page or a new block so that when I export to excel I can break.
The report currenlty lists the supv then emp details then a new supv then emp details but there are no gaps in the report ( i.e. separation to a new page, line break etc)
Currently we do not have printing setup in Apex to use pdf, etc and I have asked Dba to set it up. If I export the report to excel, while supv is grouped with their list of emps, there are no breaks and in excel I will have to manipulate to provide each supv their list.
...I am trying to provide an easy way for user to print each supv to their own page prior to print server config being installed inside of apex - is this even possible?
I have been to the column breaks portion on report formatting of my report app and all I can see is to break by columns 1, 2 ,3 or all three but no way to tell it to separate.
Regards
Danny
Edited by: DSULLIVAN on Feb 9, 2010 12:20 PM

You can't really do a page break in an excel file download. You would have to go into Excel and do the formatting to do that..
Thank you,

Need help with Report Generation Toolkit: Excel Set Cell Format.vi

Hi people,
I've been searching and found this old thread of someone asking what is the input parameter "Number format". And I dont know what should I put in there. I've tried so many possibilities, but nothing works so far, such as:
0,0
0,?
0,#
#,0
?,0
and also with @, doesnt works. Where would I find help about this parameter?
I'm using Excel2003, german version, thus local decimal separator is a comma.
I also found this help from NI, but seems doesnt help me either. Do I miss something important?
thanks,
Yan.

Hi,
I've used your suggestion and some numbers in excel doesnt need to get "right click, change to numbers" anymore (green indicators on the left-top side in some cells are gone). But, I think its still not a number, because I cant use a simple formula, such as in cell A10 I type "= A1/2" (cell A10 equals cell A1 divided with 2) . I got error which says its not a number.
Well, but other thing is found, any format-string I put in the input of Excel Set Cell Format.vi, such as #,########, will be shown the same as "customize #,########" if I right click in a cell in excel and click "Zellen formatieren" (formatting cell). But however, the numbers are still depends on the input of the format I put in the Append Table to Report.vi.
regards,
Yan.

Need help with adding formatted text and images to Crystal Report?

Here's my scenario:
I have a customer statement that's generated as a crystal report and that has a placeholder for advertisement. The advertisement is mixture of formatted text and images. Until now we only had one advertisement that was always used on the report. The new requirement is that we would have a pool of hundreds of advertisements and would need to display one specific advertisement on the customer statement based on various marketing criteria. They key is that the advertisement content will be determined programmatically and cannot be hardcoded into the report. I'm using Crystal2008 with .net SDK.
Here are the solutions I thought of, but I'm still rather lost and would appreciate your help/opinion.
1) Pass HTML or RTF to the report
Not really sure if this is possible and how to get it done. Also how would I pass in images? Would display formatting be reliable when exporting to PDF?
2) Create each add as a subreport and append it programatically
I actually have this working, but I only know how to append a new section to the end of the report and then load the subreport to the section. I have no other controll of the placement. Is there a way to dynamically load a subreport to a predefined section in the main report? How about adding a dummy subreport in the main report as a placeholder and then replacing it with a different subreport? How could I do this?
3) Pass an Image to the report
I would create each advertisement as an image and then would somehow add the image to the report. How would I load the image and control the placement? Could I somehow define a placeholder for the image in the main report-maybe a dummy image to be replaced?
Thank you.

Hello Pavel,
I would got the third way.
You can use dynamic images in your report.
Just by changing the URL to the image the image can be changed.
Please see the [Crystal Manual|http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/cr2008/en/xir3_cr_usergde_en.pdf] and search for images.
or directly here

Need help with report

Hi Friend,
I'm quite new to Oracle BI. I have managed to create a request (from the answers section) that returns desired result, my problem is the formatting requirement of my report... the thing is i need to have three sections first of which is the header with such information as timestamp, company logo etc. the second section will contain the body of the report (which i have generated from query) and the last section will be footer.
How and where do i get the formatting power to achieve this? the dashboard seems to have very limited formatting power. Could you also point me a any documentation that could be helpful?
Many thanks in advance

Since no one mentioned it, I'll add this as well:
In the Compound Layout View, in the top left corner, there is a Print and PDF button. Click it and there are options to included a HEADER and FOOTER. You can add a timestamp for the report, date, page numbers, author, etc. See if these may help you as well.

Need help troubleshooting Report Query/BI Publisher

Hi All --
I need some help with an odd issue I'm having with a report query and BI Publisher. The users run this report by inputting a date range, usually by week. Oddly enough, if we input a date range of 06/01/2008 through 06/07/2008, the report runs and BI Publisher renders the document correctly, but if we input a date range of 06/08/2008 through 06/14/2008, the report shows correctly on the screen, but BI Publisher returns an empty document. I thought perhaps it was an issue with the data, but inputting the date range of 06/01/2008 through 06/14/2008 works correctly and the document is rendered with all the data as shown in the report.
I'm really at a loss and don't know how to proceed in troubleshooting the issue. Does anyone know of any log files or anything else to look at to try and figure out why the report isn't being rendered correctly for that one week?
Thanks!

The OC4J logs don't show any errors at the time I tried running the report. I did change the output format to XML and saved it for the date range that doesn't work as well as a date range that does work. As foar as I can tell, the only differences is the data within the tags, but I'm no XML expert so I may have missed something. I opened my report template and loaded the xml data first from the date range that produces a rendered report properly and used preview...as expected it worked. When I did the same thing for the "bad" date range, I get the following set of errors, should I move my issue to the BI Publisher forum do you think?
